The Artists

Bernard Sims
In the 90s, I developed an interest in the work of the French Impressionists and began painting as a hobby. I learnt from books and magazines and was greatly influenced by Alwyn Crawshaw. What I particularly like about painting is that it concentrates the mind, and you lose yourself for 2 to 4 hours on the project. I do not take the final painting too seriously, as I’ve enjoyed the painting process.
